DAY 125. THE COST OF A RETURN.

I placed two orders with Nomad Vélo on June 24, 2026, totalling €105.92.

When I decided to return the items, I followed the return instructions and paid another €28.32 to ship them back to China.

That’s €134.24 paid between the original purchases and return shipping.

The return has a tracking number. The documentation has been provided. The correspondence has been preserved.

According to my last verified Chinese Customs check on October 21, the shipment was marked as awaiting payment of duties or taxes, with that status dated August 25. I have not verified a newer customs update.
As of my last confirmed personal update on October 25, my €105.92 refund remained unresolved, and I had an open dispute with Santander.

Returning a product should not turn into months of uncertainty.

I am not asking for special treatment. I am asking for clear communication, a fair resolution and accountability throughout the return process.
Good designs may attract customers. But how a brand treats customers when something goes wrong is what builds trust.
